Instagram Marketing For Webcam Models

Instagram Marketing For Camgirls and Pornstars

Instagram is a popular photo / video mobile app. Instagram is very popular for both mainstream and adult. Because Instagram isn’t adult-friendly (even partial nudity is against their TOS) there are some challenges to promoting through the platform. If you’re interested in making money through Instagram, it’s also possible to sell monthly subscriptions for access! Here’s what you should know about marketing through Instagram.

Remember: Instagram Isn’t Adult-Friendly

It’s important to remember that Instagram isn’t adult-friendly. In-fact, they even have partial nudity against their TOS. That means that you have to be very careful about what you post. You don’t want to get your account banned. It’s also important to realize that even if you’re within the TOS, your account might still be banned due to the nature of your work. That’s just the reality of promoting adult services through mainstream platforms.

Tags: Get Exposure But Be Careful (Flags and Ghost Bans)

Tagging your photos is a great way to gain exposure, but you got to be careful when using tags! Some tags might get your account flagged as being adult. This could lead to the account getting banned. Ghost banning is also something that social media sites have been doing. With a ghost ban, your account will be active, but won’t ever come up in search on the site. Usually spammy tagging is one of the primary reasons for ghost bans. You can use tags, and they can drive traffic, but be careful when doing so!

Benefits Of Watermarking Your Photos

There’s a lot of benefits of watermarking content. For one, it helps with the fight against piracy. It also helps with promotion. Instagram doesn’t make it easy to drive traffic. You can gain tons of exposure, but without being able to link, that doesn’t do a lot of good. Watermarking ads branding to the content and also lets potential customers know where they can find more of your content. If you got a website, the website link works good. Some performers have logos and some simply watermark with their stage-name.

Driving Traffic Through The Website Link

The one major flaw of Instagram is that there’s not a lot of ways to drive traffic using the network. The website link is the only real link you can place on your profile and account. You got to be careful with the website link, as linking directly to your camming profile or clip store might get the account banned for linking to adult content. If you’re one of the performers who are running a SFW website as well as an explicit site, linking to the SFW site is a smart move. If an explicit model website isn’t that “porny”, it could definitely work as well. Linking to a Twitter profile is safe, as Twitter is a trusted domain and explicit content isn’t accessible to accounts that don’t have explicit content enabled.

How To Use Instagram Live

Instagram has a “live” feature, very similar to live camming. This can really increase the value of having a subscription to your profile due to the intimate nature of live communications. You can also “highlight” your live story so it saves to your story for the following 24 hours. This gives all of your members a chance to catch it, just in case they missed it. Instagram also notifies your followers when you go live, so your viewers won’t be left out when you go live.

Instagram Stories: Behaves Just Like Snapchat Stories

The story feature on Instagram is pretty much the exact same as Snapchat, although Snapchat does have cuter graphics (sorry Instagram, but we’re breaking your TOS anyway so does it really matter if we trash talk at this point?) BUT Instagram has more “customizable” features within their story, such as more photo filters, lots of graphics, and customizable fonts. It also features the ability to run polls and hashtag your stories (although I wouldn’t suggest hashtagging due to the accounts explicit nature, plus your account will be on private anyway so it won’t do much.)

Make Money Off Instagram Subscriptions

Instagram isn’t just a great marketing tool. It’s also possible to make money off the platform. Selling premium Instagram subscriptions is both popular and profitable. In fact, there’s also networks for selling subscriptions that are designed specifically for camgirls and pornstars. These sites make it easy to charge for subscriptions, manage subscribers and even have directories for promotion.
